Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a media server from a first electronic device, a first request for a video content item;
- based on the first request, determining a particular geographic location of the first electronic device;
- selecting a vector graphics format version of the video content item as a selected version to communicate to the first electronic device based on the particular geographic location corresponding to a first coverage area;
- selecting a bitmap graphics format version of the video content item as the selected version to communicate to the first electronic device based on a movement of the first electronic device to a second location that is within a second coverage area that is different than the first coverage area;
- and
- communicating the selected version of the video content item to the first electronic device in response to the first request.
